Did anyone see him on Oprah this past week?

(BANG) - Tom Cruise has slammed women for taking anti-depressants.
The 'Collateral' star, who has two adopted children with ex-wife Nicole Kidman, claims mothers suffering post-natal depression should take vitamins instead.
The star's comments - in which he claimed there is no scientific proof post-natal depression actually exists - is set to cause controversy amongst his legions of female fans.
He told American TV show Access Hollywood on Thursday: "These drugs are dangerous. I have actually helped people come off them.
"There is a hormonal thing that is going on with post-natal depression, scientifically, you can prove that. But when you talk about chemical imbalances in people, there is no science behind that.
You can use vitamins to help a woman through those things."
The heartthrob star went on to condemn actress Brooke Shields for relying on anti-depressants to cure her post-natal depression, saying it ruined her acting career.
The 'Suddenly Susan' star was prescribed the drugs after becoming depressed after the birth of daughter Rowan in 2003.
Tom, who is romancing 'Dawson's Creek' beauty Katie Holmes, added: "I care about Brooke because I think she is incredibly talented. But where has her career gone?
"When you talk about postpartum, you can take people today and what you do is you use vitamins."
